U sklopu nadolazećeg izdanja When East Meets West foruma održat će se novo izdanje EAVE Slate programa! Ovaj inovativni program, koji se provodi u bliskom partnerstvu s EAVE-om, odabrat će do osam europskih produkcijskih kuća koje razvijaju tzv. slate audiovizualnih projekata. Sudionicima će ponuditi stručno savjetovanje o tome kako izgraditi uspješan slate te razviti strateško planiranje tvrtke kroz poslovne razmjene s ključnim akterima iz različitih sektora audiovizualne industrije.
Program kombinira EAVE metodu grupnog rada s nizom plenarnih sesija i individualnih konzultacija, fokusiranih na strateško planiranje poslovanja, procjenu rizika i diversifikaciju aktivnosti poduzeća. Glavni cilj programa je definirati realne kratkoročne, srednjoročne i dugoročne strategije za svaku tvrtku te naučiti sudionike kako odabrati prave projekte koje će uključiti u svoj slate.
EAVE Slate održat će se u Trstu, tijekom WEMW foruma, od 16. do 19. siječnja 2026.

This year’s WhenEast Meets West will organise the new edition of EAVE Slate! This innovative programme, run in close partnership with EAVE, will select up to 8 European companies that are developing a slate of A/V works and will offert hem consultancies on how to build a successful company slate and strategic company planning, together with business-to-business exchanges with key players from different industry sectors.
The programme combines the EAVE group work method with a series of plenary sessions and individual consultancies focusing on strategic company planning, potential risk evaluation and company diversification. The main goal is to define realistic short-, mid- and long-term strategies for their companies and how to pick the right projects to include in their company slates.
The EAVESlate will take place in Trieste, during WEMW from January16-19, 2026.
The call is open for European production companies that have at least 5years of existence. Furthermore, companies must have produced and released at least 3 feature length films (any genre including documentary), while the majority of projects included in the slate should have at least one regional/national/supranational development support in place (excluding deferrals, own investment or tax incentive schemes). Companies must include at least 2 different formats in their proposed slate and applicants are encouraged to apply with a slate of at least 4 and max 8 projects that can be in different stages of development (early, advanced, financing, etc).
All applications must include a complete online application form, financing plans for each project, company and slate strategy and a motivation statement expressing why you want to participate and what you wish to get out of it. Application deadline is November 5, 2025!
In case of selection, the participation fee is 450 euros, including WEMW accreditation, tuition fee and lunches. Travel costs and accommodation are not included.
